Don Quixote - Mariinsky Theatre

This ballet is not a complete adaptation of Miguel de Cervantes’ novel but instead focuses on one episode of Don Quixote's adventures. The story revolves around the failed wedding of the wealthy Camacho, known as Gamache in the ballet, and his love interest, Quiteria, who is also pursued by the villager Basil, referred to as Basilio in this interpretation.

The performance showcases the artistry of the Mariinsky Theatre and highlights its commitment to ballet as a vital form of storytelling. With stunning choreography and expressive dancing, this production captures the essence of the narrative while offering a fresh perspective on the characters and their relationships. Collectors of ballet performances will appreciate this unique rendition and the talent of Viktoria Tereshkina.
